Every chance India could be out of the tournament without playing Semi Final. Sehwag is a player whom bowlers fear and his 30 odd is enough to dent their confidence. Missing him. Ishant a bad bowler to be in a T20 match.
INDIA is bee cramped with deadly cancer !!! i.e. internal not external i.e. MC.BC. Dhoni….even if he had scored run a ball (he scored 11 in 23 balls) INDIA would have won the match. He has missed run out of Bravo, at that movement if Bravo would have gone, INDIA still had chance of wining the match

Main culprit is Dhoni...First of all he does not have foot work which is very much essential in cricket.He is been very lucky captain so far and can only play in sub continent pitch.Let him prove his batting first and then handle the team.
i told yesterday that dhoni spoiled the batting order by coming at no.3 & raina will failed as he didnot get much batting practice because of dhoni's tactics. see my words came true.
1.He made 11 off 23 balls 2.He missed a run out at crucial stage
India made a defendable score and match was in India pocket till 10th over. But Bravo was too good for India. It was Bravo's day. India bowled well and fielding was also good but it was not enough to stop Bravo.
My doubt about top order collapse has become true. We are playing with 6-5 combination in which one is Y.Pathan(Pinch hitter). Good start is necessary to India for a good total rather than quick start. Dhoni made a mistake by coming down the order in pressure of media. He should come at 3. If India will score 70 to 75 runs in 1st 10 overs with 8-9 wickets in hand then they can reach 160 plus easily because of hitters like Raina, Yuvraj, Pathan brothers in lower order. Dhoni is waste in slog overs. In next match he should come at 3 or if he comes at 7 then I.Pathan should come at 3.

You supported him as if he is the only player who can transform the team to a world beaters. And the realty is here for you to change that opinion

Don't lose the hope. Mistakes are part of an human being. But how frequently they happen is important. So far Dhoni did a great job for team India.

Werent you hyping up Dhobi before the match?? He didnt leave no. 3 spot under media pressure but because he didnt want to face the new ball. Remember, a certain Mr. Ganguly used to change batting order for himself too based upon similar conditions, except that it was at end of his career

The mullahs in the Indian team are a bane for the cricket of India. Ishant was a opening bowler with his pace and bounce can easily get quick wickets. RP Singh was not given chance for the sake for including one more mullah into the team is a disgrace. The management has to learn that mullahs are the match fixers down the years and also up the years.

You are a big disgrace to India. You should be sent to Pak where your relatives are being smashed in their balls. Chaddi atleast cricket ko toh chodo.
Indian team now realises the importance of the services of Shewag. There were no clear indications about his injury and he came back home 'India'. Dhoni has forgotten the format of cricket. He has played a fantastic 'Test Knock' in Twenty 20 format. His strike rate is 28.6 when he faced the 16th ball. Secondly, poor handling of the bowlers at the right time. See, the same 150 runs by Srilanka. The perfect game plan. R.P.Singh could have been given an opportunity instead of Irfan Pathan or Ishant Sharma. He is the best bowler when it is compared to the death overs and hitting the deck. It is all proved in IPL T 20. We dont want fast bowlers, we need only the quality bowling. Ishant most of times proved that He tries to beat the batsman with his bowling not the wicket. Look at Lasith Malinga who bowls fantastically with his yorkers. Look at Ishant he never bowled a single delivery with a yorker. (Those who need clarification, watch the match accurately about his delivery). Dhoni proved himself a worthless captain when it matters to quality bowling and fielding. Gayle never had much discussion with his bowlers and fielders because he is a great captain eventhough his team won the match, he talks politely and the kind of gesture. He doesnot take the victory to the Head. But this fellow Dhoni, who is so methodical in appearing advertisements, not having any methods to tackle the opponents. I am sure Dhoni with the team comes back to India with a bare hand.

You are absolutely right. Rohit is not adjusted to opening slot . Practice match & real match is different . Dhoni is now big burden to our team. He is very average player with some luck come to this position. We are missing Sehwag , ego class with Dhoni proves costly to india. In practice & league matches Dhoni came at position no 3 & have little chance for S Raina to adjust himself in english weather.Wicket keeping is terrible ( missed runout.). Batting it looks like that he is playing for ad agency to see his face as long in middle as possible. He is certainly not playing for his team. Lot of hype created in favour of Dhoni by advertiser & BCCI is simply ignors this things ( they need pet boy like dhoni). Sehwag I thing is more important player than Dhoni in this format . ICC provides so much chance to India by change the group format for playing Semis( As per rule Pakistan, Srilanka & New zealand should be in India's group. But due to Bad captancy - Ishant to Bowl opening spell in place of irfan , India is in such a critical position . Pl. dhoni step down for India's shake if you have so much care for the country.
